Overview

"The current racial division in America and continued inequality for African Americans has led to civil unrest not seen since the turbulent 1960s. The Black Awakening, sparked by the senseless murder of George Floyd and many other African Americans, has precipitated a long-overdue conversation on racial inequality and injustice in America. This broad-based global Movement represents a critical moment in time that America cannot afford to let pass without enacting substantive changes leading to racial equality. In his book, Freddie Hudson uses an analytic approach to get to the heart of racism and to explore the question that many African Americans frequently ask, ""Why do they hate us."" He examines this question from an historical perspective to reveal the nexus between legacy and contemporary racism, and explores why racism and the associated hate is still as prevalent today in America as it was in the past. ""Freddie Hudson has written an important book for our times. In American Racism: A Soldier's Lifelong Journey, Hudson shows us current-day racism through the powerful lens of his own experience in a country built on slavery. An urgent call to action for anyone who does not want to repeat the mistakes of the past."" - Sarah Valentine, Ph.D., author of When I Was White: A Memoir"
